I mean... I like it. I remember your post from last time where, apparently, I got the top comment.
It looks like you've dealt with the UX issues I ran into previously (e.g., back/forward behaviour), but I did almost immediately spot a different oddity in your portfolio...
When you click on "My Projects" and then use the left nav to switch between "All", "Image", "Web", etc., it highlights the relevant projects rather than filtering out the irrelevant projects... which does feel a bit weird. I guess I understand it give you only have four projects in there but that's perhaps the other issue: I'd really like to see more projects than you're showing off here.
But, I mean, I still like it - I really like it. It's a lot more characterful than the vast majority of other portfolios I've seen and the attention to detail is very strong overall.
Again, something I said last time that I'll repeat here: if you were applying for a design or UX role with this I'd certainly interview you. I'd have to be unhinged not to.
(And, FWIW, I thought I gave you fairly balanced feedback, but clearly managed to piss a few people off so maybe, again, we'll both be in for another roasting - or at least a rather mixed bag of comments. Regardless, I wish you the absolute best.)
haha welcome back, your feedback last time was 100% fair and balanced - I used it along with the other comments in that thread to resolve the issues I felt deserved attention and the things you mentioned fell into that category, so I appreciate it!
in regards to the new my projects bug, thats honestly something I noticed myself just recently too and its a result of changing which projects I have up. at one point they all had at least 1 project they were filtering - that is something I will be sorting out!
Im getting back to fleshing out the projects now, I've been spending time working on some other stuff - i needed a break after the amount of time that went into this originally haha. but im aiming to circle back now and polish up/add to the copy/projects
haha! Im fully prepared for some roasts but this time i'm 9 months more experienced in dealing with it. Thanks so much for the thoughtful feedback, I really appreciate it and its even better coming from someone who saw the original version.
haha thanks! turns out it isn't as easy as searching for a standard audio file for the sound (being a machine sound i guess/think?) so I had to find someone doing ASMR and cut it up hahah
That was the idea! I can't stand here and say that it's made me completely stable in my freelance career but it defintely got some eyeball's on me that would have no clue who I otherwise was
I love it. But I'm missing the Game Boy cheat code to unlock the goodies...
check the bar above the gameboy when it asks you for the code :)

You've nailed the feel. Ignore the nay sayers!
thanks mate! it was countless hours of obession & frustration back in the days of Sonnet 3.5
For sure! Im a big advocate for anything outside the box haha
That Windows XP loading bar brings me back. Great job.
thanks boss!
Awesome. Props for the iPod clickwheel. I miss my Classic!
haha thanks! turns out it isn't as easy as searching for a standard audio file for the sound (being a machine sound i guess/think?) so I had to find someone doing ASMR and cut it up hahah
So friggin’ cool. I think it’s really fun and when you can instantly entice people to click around and explore then you have already succeeded.
